A boat hit a large wake near the 62 mile marker last night, and a passenger was thrown overboard and struck the propeller. The Missouri State Highway Patrol Water Patrol Division Water Patrol says 24-year-old Brandon Treece of Independence fell from the bow and was seriously injured when he was struck by the prop. Treece was flown by helicopter to University Hospital in Columbia. The driver of the boat, Alejandro Genis, also of Independence, was not hurt.
